[Bao Qingtian] Why is peace?

A few little thieves were nothing but a mob, and they couldn't even take a single move from Zhan Zhao's hands. Therefore, Bai Yutang and Pang Yu, who arrived later, didn't have to make a move. Zhan Zhao beat them all to the ground within a few breaths. On the ground, weeping silently.

The girl saw that the bandits Qi Qi was unlucky, but she still held the bamboo pole in her hand, made a posture of protecting herself, and looked at Zhan Zhao and the others warily: "Who are you?"

This question is a bit weird. Ordinary people, if they are robbed and rescued on the road, their first reaction is to thank them, or they are still in shock and can't even speak coherently.It's not that Zhan Zhao insisted on asking others to thank him, but the girl's reaction was really unusual, and instead made people want to explore why such behavior came about.

So Zhan Zhao replied: "We are from Kaifeng Mansion, and we came to find out about the relief in Xuzhou. I am Zhan Zhao, and these two are Pang Yu, Marquis of Anle, and Bai Yutang, the righteous hero."

"Kaifeng Mansion?" The girl's eyes lit up, "Are you really from Kaifeng Mansion?"

"Meeting by chance, what reason do we have to deceive the girl?" Zhan Zhao unconsciously smiled.This smile made Zhan Zhao more friendly, like a brother next door, he could make people feel trustworthy and have the urge to tell everything.

What's more, the three of them are all handsome and extraordinary, and their temperament is not like a bad person. The girl hesitated for a moment, then put down the bamboo pole, and said with relief: "Little girl Wang Suzhen, I was rude just now, and I would like to thank Hero Zhan for saving me."

"Miss Wang, you're welcome. I don't know why you appeared in this wilderness?" Zhan Zhao asked, "If you are from Xuzhou, you should know that there are many hungry and dead people around Xuzhou, and many refugees have become bandits. The land is not safe, you, a young girl, must travel alone, there must be many dangers, why don't you go with your family, or go with a trustworthy person?"

Wang Suzhen said angrily: "I am the only one in my family now! The imperial envoys sent by the imperial court forced my father to death, and put my elder brother in prison. Even I was almost kidnapped by others! Instead of being forced to death by those people , I might as well try my luck, even dying at the hands of bandits is much better than dying at the hands of those scum! If I don’t die, I must go to Kaifeng Mansion, sue Beijing, and sue the pilgrims!”

"...It was those two imperial envoys who harmed your family, why did you sue the emperor?" Pang Yu couldn't help asking.

"If it weren't for the emperor and his old fools, who sent two imperial envoys who only know how to do their best and collect money in the name of giving relief, how could we ordinary people in Xuzhou live in such a difficult and painful life?" Wang Suzhen said angrily, " There was no rain in Xuzhou for several months, the weather was severe drought, and the fields had no harvest. We ordinary people were all hungry to survive the day. We thought that the imperial court sent imperial envoys to release relief, and we would be able to solve our urgent needs. Who would have thought that the relief rice Not only was it mixed with sand, but it was sold at a higher price than in the store! My father went to the Yamen to file a complaint and was beaten to death. Is there any reason for this? It’s okay if the emperor didn’t send someone, but the person he sent made our lives worse. It's even more sad, I won't sue him or anyone else!"

This girl... has a real personality.

Zhan Zhao asked: "Then your brother, why was he imprisoned?"

"Alas..." Wang Suzhen sighed, found a rock and sat down honestly, as if she had made up her mind to vomit from the beginning to the end, drinking saliva to moisten her throat before answering: "My father is called king To be honest, I was too honest, so I couldn't help but go to the Yamen to sue in a moment of anger. Our brother and sister are not as impulsive as our father, and we also understand that the two imperial envoys have power. There is no way to hurt them. So after Dad passed away, we decided to keep a vigil for Dad first, and wait for him to be buried in peace. The two of us will go to Beijing to file a lawsuit in Kaifeng Mansion, who knows..."

Unexpectedly, those two imperial envoys caught the most powerful bandit leader outside the city. The leader's name was Yan Wushuang, who was originally a knight-errant. As a leader, he used force to suppress those bandits, and also specialized in robbing the rich and helping the poor, helping many poor people to tide over their difficulties.Wang Suzhen's elder brother was grateful for the chivalrous heart of the bandit leader Yan Wushuang, and couldn't bear to see him being tortured by two young princes. He tried to rescue him, but he was caught by Zhao Qiutang and thrown into prison for colluding with the bandit leader.

After Wang Suzhen heard about this incident, she was very anxious, and asked Chen Qian, the prefect of Xuzhou, who was very sympathetic to what happened to the Wang family, and decided to let her go to the prison to see her brother.

But she was unlucky, and met Zhao Qiujie in the prison. Zhao Qiujie immediately looked at her with squinting eyes, and wanted to take her away on the spot!

If Chen Qian hadn't intervened to stop him, Zhao Qiujie might have succeeded.

Chen Qian secretly donated silver to Wang Suzhen, telling her to stay away from Xuzhou as soon as possible, as far as possible, the two little princes would never let it go.

Wang Suzhen accepted Chen Qian's help, and decided to go to Beijing to sue, hoping to clear her brother's grievances.

As soon as she left Xuzhou, she ran into a few bandits. She thought she was doomed, but unexpectedly, Yan Wushuang, the leader of the bandit, followed her secretly. When she saw that she was in danger, she stepped forward and beat them away. Bandits.Yan Wushuang knew that she was going to Kaifeng Mansion to sue, and planned to escort her all the way to Beijing, but Wang Suzhen sternly refused.

"I told him that if he still feels guilty about my brother, he should go to the government office and surrender himself, and return my brother's innocence!" Wang Suzhen was furious, "If it wasn't for him, my brother would not have been imprisoned either!"

"So... Yan Wushuang was driven away by you?" Pang Yu's expression was a bit strange. This girl seems to miss the point every time?

It’s the same with the emperor before, even if Zhao Zhen is responsible for ignorance, he is not the one who murdered and collected money, and Zhao Zhen should not be blamed for this. His original intention was to help the victims of Xuzhou. It is bad luck for people to distort.

Then there was the matter of Yan Wushuang. It would be fine if Wang Suzhen was a heroine, but apart from a little brute force, she couldn't even beat a few thieves. How could she still be so confident that she had the ability to go to Beijing alone?Yan Wushuang also wanted to repay Wang Kun's life-saving grace, so he chose to protect his sister. If Yan Wushuang had a way to escape the hunt, there was no need to return the answer.Asking Yan Wushuang to turn himself in at this time, wouldn't it be a self-inflicted trap?

What's more, although he is a bandit leader, he has never had the blood of kind people on his hands. He is considered a chivalrous person, and he deserves to die.

Wang Suzhen hugged the burden tightly, and snorted: "I don't care, after all, my brother was arrested because of Yan Wushuang, and the person who tied the bell has to be untied!"

"Then have you ever thought that if Yan Wushuang surrendered himself, Zhao Qiujie would definitely let your brother go?" Pang Yu asked.

"This..." Wang Suzhen was at a loss for words, she had never thought about this!

Pang Yu sighed in her heart, this girl is really her father's biological daughter, a little...too honest.

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang also had strange expressions on their faces, but they didn't say anything. One tied up the bandits on the ground, and the other untied the water bag and handed it to Pang Yu. Between the touch of fingertips, there seemed to be water flowing. no affection.

Wang Suzhen drank all the water in her bamboo tube, and wanted to ask them to borrow some water, but seeing this situation, she couldn't speak for some reason.

She suppressed the strangeness in her heart, and asked again: "If you are really from Kaifeng Mansion, then I...do you still want to sue Beijing?"

This journey was really uneven, and she didn't know what to do.

"Of course there is no need." Zhan Zhao smiled and said, "When I arrive in Xuzhou, I will find a porter, write down all the situation in Xuzhou, and send it to Kaifeng Mansion as soon as possible. After Master Bao gets the letter, he will definitely catch up with him personally. Come on, it will not be too late for you to file a complaint. But now the three of us have just arrived in Xuzhou, and we are not familiar with everything here, and we still need a girl to guide us and explain it to us."

"That's no problem, I can tell you whatever you want to know!" Wang Suzhen said generously.

After agreeing, they decided to take Wang Suzhen on the road together.

It's just four people, three horses, and Wang Suzhen is a girl, so it's a bit embarrassing.

Bai Yutang then asked her: "Young lady can ride a horse?"

"I...I can ride a donkey, can I?" Wang Suzhen stood in front of the tall horse, swallowed, and asked uncertainly.

"Forget it, let Zhan Escort take you for a ride." Bai Yutang was a little disappointed, he had originally planned to give up a horse and share the ride with the little crab.

Since Wang Suzhen doesn't know how to ride a horse, it's inconvenient for him or the little crab to lead people, so let's leave it to Nan Xia Zhan Zhao.

Zhan Zhao: "..."

Fortunately, Zhan Zhao is not a conscientious person. He has encountered no matter how difficult the situation was when he traveled the rivers and lakes. Now he just lost a horse and had to ride with a girl. It doesn't matter, as long as you behave in accordance with the etiquette and have a clear conscience.

And Wang Suzhen didn't think too much, and she didn't dare to have too much contact with Zhan Zhao after getting on the horse, she just closed her eyes tightly and grabbed the other's clothes tightly, for fear that she would be thrown off the horse.

Because Xuzhou was right in front of them, all three of them rode their horses with lightning speed, and they arrived outside Xuzhou city in less than three hours.

Before Wang Suzhen left, Xuzhou was in a state of being unable to enter the city. There were too many hungry people, and there was not much food in the city to support so many people. It's hard to come back.The second is that there are many bandits outside the city. In order to prevent bandits from entering the city, the gates of the city are extremely strict in checking people entering the city.

But at this time, only soldiers in twos and threes guarded the gate of the city, and those soldiers looked like they hadn't had enough to eat, and they were exhausted.The three of them took a girl and climbed up the city wall quietly, but no one found their whereabouts.

"This is not quite right!" Even the honest Wang Suzhen felt strange, "When I left the city, I had to smear my face black with pot ashes before I could get out of the city. Why are there so few people at the gate of the city? ?”
